Small Scale Military Headquarters

Hey guys I need help.
The A7V is comming along SLOWLY. I need ideas on how to make the rivets. There are afew options out there. Rosie the Riveter and the like that use the glue and sirenge method. But they are better for smaller scale stuff. The only thing that I have come across that are about the true scale are tiny round headed brads from my loscal hardware store. But the shafts are hard to cut off. The other option is to drill tiny holes and put them in that way. But there are a lot of rivets and this will take about a week to do. Any ideas?

when i made my Male Mk IV i used straight pins. The head size was almost perfect for a rivet. I built the tank out of paper and card stock, so it was a simple matter of pre-painting the heads of the pins, via spray painting and then pushing them into location on the model. The rivet locations were already marked on the model (i enlarged a 1/25 paper model), so it was a snap. I secured each pin with a tiny drop of white glue before pushing it home.

I don't know what you've made your tank out of, so i don't know if this idea will work for you but it may at least give you some ideas.

Thanks for the reply Aferguson. I am using 1/8 black plastic. So I would have to pre-drill . Which is the same problem with the brads. I have tried white glue on wax paper and the same with CA glue with so-so results. Any other ideas?
